Grief Is A Hole In The Chest

GUYS, I WON !!!

I'D LIKE TO THANK THE ACADEMY AND THIS LITTLE ITCHY BOY RIGHT HERE 👇👇👇

My finished entry for the CoS thumbnail contest! Oh man I worked my ass off on this, made half a piece (poll winner; #7) and then decided I didn't like it and went with my personal favorite. Churned this baby out in about four days which is quite the speedrun for me.

There are a ton of super gorgeous entries so I don't expect to win, but I think I have a pretty decent chance! Either way I hope you enjoy it! :]c Happy recode release week!! I am beyond hyped fr

MAN that was a workout but I wanted to draw every character at least once if not just for future reference! I've got like 3,000 hours on this game over the course of eight years and I think I may be playing it for the rest of my life

Think I might make a portrait mod 🤔

Shoutout to my friends for helping me through my eye style crisis

Your art is so wholesome! 💕

D'aww, thank you, anon! That's very kind of you to say, I appreciate it! Have some teeny tiny twinsies for your trouble <3

Another resource for animal artists

So I have just discovered the absolutely incredible digital library of skull scans. These scans include not only images of bones (mainly skulls) but 3D MODELS THAT YOU CAN VIEW IN-BROWSER!

For example, come rotate my cranium here!

Keep in mind that you need to have the scientific name of the species you’re looking for in order to search for it, but that information’s only a Wikipedia page away.

Definitely gonna be doing some studies with this baby!

“The Mabel Treatment”, 2020

Was looking through my DeviantArt and people seemed to really like this one (I am people also), so here’s a reupload on a website that isn’t totally dead! Original description under the cut :)

“It's ya girl back with another limited palette piece cause it's been a while since I tried one and my inspiration doc is getting real gummed-up

Based off a sketch a did a while ago, I love these two. This old nerd could really use some Mabel pampering to help along with the healing process.

Original sketch involved her having painted his nails as well but it didn't look right in the limited palette, maybe next time </3

Oh, and speaking of which, I love this palette! I wasn't sure how it'd go at first but it's really nice and cozy, perfect for this scene.

Randomized prompt:

Character(s): Ford, Mabel (added Waddles too just cause) Keyword: brush Tone: sweet Palette: sheet 3, 78 / F60″

I play an unhealthy amount of Creatures of Sonaria. In terms of survival games it has some questionable mechanics (I tell people it's a good game super close to being a great game) [EDIT: ok news that they're just entirely remaking the whole game and fixing everything came out literally the day after I posted this cool] but I always find myself coming back to it for the absolutely kick-ass creature designs!

Magnarothus is my favorite creature and this bab was my first sought-after glimmer (game's equivalent to a shiny Pkmn pretty much) so I wanted to make her an OC! She is the love of my life fr 🥺🥺 You can see her in-game design and concept art over on her Toyhouse profile!

Went on a mushroom trip on New Years, saw this random image on my phone and it spoke to me. He is like a deep sea organism comb jelly copepod looking thing to me

Always so fascinated by my shroomy art, it's somehow even more colorful than usual and looks nothing like how it was supposed to, lol! Definitely going in my wallpapers folder

Secret Santa for my buddy Gin! The ring around their nose is an essential aspect of their character and so I wanted to mirror it in the ring of the eclipse. <3

Happy New Year!

Ok first of all if you haven't already go read @pengychan 's fic Flat Dreams. It was the most commonly accepted Bill backstory until TBoB and is still my favorite fic ever written. This will make no sense if you haven't!

Whew! Still moving around but happy to have my tablet back. Of course immediately drew triangles. Was in a Liam mood for some reason so here's a take on a Liam-joins-Bill scenario! More doodles and rambles under the cut :]

Bottom left is my take on a Euclydian Liam. Irregulars aren't executed in Euclydia but they're sort of akin to fat people where they face constant, normalized discrimination and are often the butt of the joke. After birth, parents are socially pressured to attempt to fix their child's asymmetry via surgery or shape-correcting braces and are often made to feel ashamed if they cannot, a shame that transfers onto the Irregular once they reach adulthood.

Given how extreme Liam's asymmetry is, he would typically be a candidate for surgery, but the presence of the brick pattern on his longest angle indicates that that's where his lungs are (think of the pattern as something akin to gill slits or indents for spiracles; they breathe through the seams [source]), so instead he gets a brace.

It's not a very good brace. It's a cheap one for the lower class and pretty uncomfortable as all it really does is squeeze really hard. Not super happy with this design so have been brainstorming better ones; I hc Kryptos as having one of these braces too so he's my inspiration!

Bottom right is just the two Getting Scared™ together. Bill has psychotic episodes, Liam has dissociative episodes, and it kinda ends up triggering them both in a big meltdown cycle. Bill starts clawing at his own face and behaving erratically -> this triggers Liam's fear of him and makes him dissociate -> Bill sees Liam's gone away which triggers his own terror of losing him again -> repeat forever!

Alas, as hard as it is being together, it's harder being apart

Ough.....my favorite worm

I do not like drawing on my iPad ;_; For some reason it totally short-circuits my brain and I forget my entire process. This looks better than most of it but eh?? Still not a super big fan. Nonetheless, hope you like it, lol!
